Join us as an Assistant Manager in our Thame shop and become an ambassador for our charity. We have a permanent Part time position available working 30 hours per week.
You will join a busy shop working alongside a team of paid staff and volunteers helping to maximise the shops sales profits.
Great customer service is crucial to what we do so previous experience in hospitality, High Street retail or ideally Charity Retail would help you hit the ground running.
Full training is provided. We are keen to work with people who have the right attitude so willingness to learn specific skills is equally as important as past experience. To thrive in this role you will need a good eye for detail, strong organisational skills and capability to manage volunteer teams in a variety of situations. You will be supported by the Shop Manager and Area Manager to achieve your objectives in these areas.
Our Thame shop is open 6 days a week and the role will require some weekends on a rota basis. Flexibility is required as working patterns will change regularly due to the needs of the business and levels of volunteers available to work.
We are committed to getting the best out of our applicants and employees we have and therefore make the commitment to sharing interview questions prior to interview. Interviews will be conducted virtually via Microsoft Teams.
Please note that everyone working for Helen and Douglas House are required to undertake a Disclosure and Barring service check. Helen and Douglas is committed to safeguarding and promoting welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
